Nothing but the Wolf in Me
November 2020
Valeena is on the run. Except she's not running anymore. She's managed to do the impossible, escape from her sociopath brother and hide away on the outskirts of a nice, sleepy mountain town.
It's just her, her kinda-neighbor, Bob (not his real name because she doesn't do names), and the small arsenal she keeps stashed in her cabin, just in case. That is until one snowy night an injured dog (wolf?) finds its way to her front porch offering companionship, an uncanny knack for being able to unlock and relock doors, and a habit of disappearing.
Even more unexpected is the intense, insanely hot dude who shows up claiming ownership of her new puppy only to sweep her into the kind of passion she thought had no place in her life. He also brings his own secrets, a hint to her lineage, and a demand that she trust him to keep her safe.
The Battle Prince's Prize Bride
November 2020
A warrior’s fate isn’t determined by what he holds in his hands. I’ve always believed this, even as I take up a sword in a contest of princes that will determine who will be king of our lands. It’s a prize that many covet, including my brother who wants the throne more than any I know and is the last person who should have it. I don’t even want to be king, but I’ll do it just to keep it from him, and that’s all that matters until I’m gifted the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
Benta comes as a wonder in the Matching, a ceremony to determine the mates of me and my fellow battle princes. She’s not like the other prizes. First, she’s human, not a simpering Worsi or snooty Piki. She’s also a fierce woman who’s full of surprises, any of which could tear us apart.This title was originally apart of the Claimed by Temptation Collection released in March 2020.

about nikki
Nikki Clarke is the pen name of a poet, writer and educator from Chicago. She's always loved a good love story in books and on film. Her favorite on screen love declarations in no particular order are: Darius and Nina under the viaduct, Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth in the field (Knightley and MacFadden version), and Dwayne and Whitley at the wedding. Nikki doesn't mind a little weird (or raunch) mixed in with her romance and hopes to contribute to more happily ever afters of all shades and styles. She currently lives in Florida, but Chicago will always be her home.
